さしゅー
The second bottle of Yoshida Kurau I got at UTAGE! This time it was Yamahai Kijoshu!
This sake is brewed with Ishikawa's newest sake rice "Hyakumangoku no Shiro" and Ishikawa's oldest native rice "Kinshi"! This is the Yamahai Kijoshu! The Yoshida brewery is amazing at making Yamahai kijoshu!
The aroma is juicy, citrusy, and peachy. The aroma has a sweetness that is typical of kijo-zake. The sweetness, however, is beautifully followed by a juicy umami flavor! The acidity comes from there and the aftertaste is refreshing. The low alcohol content (11%) makes it easy to drink 😄It is still a very beautiful sake despite being a Yamahai sake. The sweetness is beautiful even though it is a kijo sake. I love Yoshidagura after all!
